一路顺风

• 拼音: yī lù shùn fēng
• 汉字拆解: 一 = one; 路 = road; 顺 = 川 (river) + 页 (head), meaning 'smooth/along'; 风 = simplified from 風, meaning 'wind'

含义

Have a pleasant journey; may the wind be at your back. A farewell blessing for smooth travels.

Very similar to 一路平安 but with a slightly different nuance — 顺风 (following wind) emphasizes a smooth, easy journey rather than just safety. Both are commonly used when seeing someone off. Some people avoid saying this to someone taking a flight, as the literal 'following wind' could imply turbulence, but this superstition is not universal.

例句

1. 同事们在车站对他说一路顺风。
2. 希望你一路顺风，早点到家。
3. 出发前，大家都祝她一路顺风。
